2018 MINI Countryman consumer reviews

Bought a 2018 Mini Countryman Base model pre owned and have loved everyday with it. Only had one issue and that being something with the Valve Gas Breather. I have yet to fix it yet and it’s been about 3 months. Doesn’t cause any noticeable performance issue (besides the decrease in fuel mileage), just the check engine light on. Other than that, I drive this around the island. Very easy to park and maneuver around. I am planning on getting the newer Mini Countryman about 2 years after they’re released so they can work out all the kinks and stuff.

Purchased this used for my son at a great value and it is a very engaging car to drive. Whats remarkable is how it has almost everything my BMW X7 has in terms of tech. It has plenty of pep and the ride is what I expected for a sporty small vehicle. Interior room is more than expected and the sunroof is much quieter than my BMW that you will forget its open. The build quality is better than any vehicle in this segment and MPG is better than what they list on the specs. Handling is precise and braking is grabby until you get used to it. The only negative is the Run Flat tires which I will replace.

LOVE this car! Feels deluxe and fun to drive! It's as big as any other SUV, lots of stowage for trips. Drive in Standard Mode, ECO Mode, Sport Mode. High technology inside, Bluetooth, diagnostics, alert settings, too many bells & whistles to name them all. Built-in alarm & tracking system. Mini Logo door lights. Very reliable, won't leave you stranded.

Performance, very good. Excellent Mileage, Maintenance & Service is affordable. Service & Sales Support is fantastic. The Mini is excellent in comfort, with plenty of leg and headroom!

This MINI is significantly more comfortable than our previous one. It sacrifices very little in maneuverability or performance, for the huge gain in ride comfort. The ECO mode really quiets the car and smooths the ride while traveling on interstate highways, and the Sport mode tightens the suspension and quickens acceleration, making a country road blast more exciting. Reliability is light years ahead of the R-series MINI's. For those who owned and were burned by the R56, R55 or R60 MINI's, the F-series are worth a second look.

The car is good. Still to much interior road noise from the tires and lack of sound proofing. I have a 2012 F150. You don?t here a thing inside. You just enjoy the ride

Before buying the Mini Cooper Countryman base model, 1.5 liter engine, I compared it to an an Audi Q2 which was another option in a crossover, but the Q2 does not have the passenger space of the countryman. Although many reviews say the base model has less power than the S anda pokey engine, for my purposes it has plenty of zip even with a full passenger load. I drive it in the mountains and it has plenty of power. It especially gets gas mileage on the freeway.

Mini Countryman (Cooper) is very spacious, well-designed and comfortable. The chassis is superb and stable with a very precise and sporty but compliant. Based on the BMW X1, the Mini Countryman has a great platform. Space and utility is great as are the rear power tailgate with kick opening and auto trans. Wish I had bough the "S' version with 189hp and bigger more powerful brakes - both of which are well needed. Style in green with white roof and stripes and proportions are perfect.

Recently leased '18 Countryman S. Very uncomfortable sport seats in S version. Tough ride if traveling more 15 minutes. Wish seats could be changed out :(

MY NEW 2018 COUNTRY MAN IS THE BEST THING EVER. WE NAMED HIM THE CHAMPION AT OUR HOME, HE MAKES ME EXCITED TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING BEFORE WORK JUST TO DRIVE HIM. MY DAUGHTER ALSO HAS A MINI COOPER THAT SHE LOVES.
